Reduce coefficient of friction of silicone rubber.
Reduce coefficient of friction of silicone rubber.
(OP)
Can anyone suggest a permenant high temperature (300F) coating that can be applied to silicone rubber that will reduce the coefficient of friction of silicone.





RE: Reduce coefficient of friction of silicone rubber.
I don't know if you are producing the silicone product, if you are, then the tackiness can be reduced some bit by increasing the Cure Temperature. This is particularily true for RTV (room temp vulcanising). You can also add a silicone oil to the mix before curing. This will then release from the surface providing lubrication. You could also apply the silicone oil directly to the cured (finished product) surface. There are various viscosities available.
Hope this helps.

we offer a proprietary inorgance surface treatment that is effective for lower durometers, 40A and down, for production orders of some size, say 1000 part minimum
